From the “Declaration of Independence,” “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain Unalienable Rights that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

From the “Declaration of Independence,” “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain Unalienable Rights that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government.”

So it is prudent indeed that the state and federal constitutions are brought forth: the Federal Constitution, Article IV Sec. 4: “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.”

Our government is promoting violence against us.

We do not have a republican form of government. In 1871, the 41st Congress turned our government into a corporation, by The Organic Act of 1871 that made the people, property, to be taxed in more ways than one.

Congress and presidents are illegally using the United Nations Treaty, Agenda 21, and the ESA and EPA, to get rid of all unsustainable things such as dams, logging, roads in the forest, dredge mining, all mining, skiing, domesticated animals, all use of oil and so forth. This is not legal, but our government is following it without question.

California Constitution: Article II Sec. 1: “All political power is inherent in the people. Government is instituted for their protection, security and benefit, and they have the right to alter or reform it when the public good may require.” Thus, this coming June 3, we can vote yes on Measure C. If passed, we will begin the legal process to establish the Republic of Jefferson, of, for and by the people.

We must get out from this government of tyranny. As it says in the Federal Constitution: Amendments IX and X: Amendment IX Sec.1: “The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.” (Ratified 12-15-1791). Amendment X Sec.1: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States Respectively, or to the people.”

By using these described sections and others of our constitutions, we will be creating a government of, for and by the people. We are not asking for permission. We are telling our government that our constitutions say we can do this by the vote of the people. This is why many people must be involved, if they wish to be sovereign again and have unalienable rights.

The voters shall vote for at least 12 administrators who shall write a declaration of independence and a constitution about our rights, restore our economy, and make a charter for all of our needs from the California Constitution: Our charter, when created, is to be voted upon by “We the People,” along with the declaration and constitution. “XI, sec 4 (b) (charter counties) shall have all the powers that are provided by this Constitution or by statute for (counties).” Then the people vote on it, and if passed, just file the charter with the secretary of state, for it was voted for by the people.

Remember we have a gross domestic product of 1.8 billion dollars in Siskiyou, when we are free to use our land and water. We will also have our own bank backed with gold, because mining will begin. We will not be subject to the debts of the state. The debt for the state of California is over 419 billion dollars and for Siskiyou about 1/4 billion dollars.

We will be on our way for independence and get rid of all that has been put upon us illegally which harm our economy and assault our lives, liberties and properties. The Cal Pers will still keep paying monies to their clients. And since we paid into the federal government our Social Security, we should continue to also receive that money. We can free our educational systems, because logging will begin again. We will not accept money from the state or federal governments. We owe nothing to the state of California, or the feds; we can use our water and land the way we see fit. We will be able to live according to our rules without interference. A board of supervisors shall be elected but they will not have a region. They shall be subjected to the will of the people.

All of the granges in Siskiyou County support the Republic of Jefferson. They formed the Jefferson Action Committee, which encourages and informs the people. They want to do this legally, having town hall meetings and a large article in the SDN once a week. If you are not registered to vote, please register. To begin with, we were a republic and we want to again be a republic of Jefferson; a Republic of Jefferson of, for and by the people, because it is the will of the people. Your county can do this same thing.

Do not fear, freedom is near, Vote YES on Measure C to be a Republic of Jefferson. Thank you.
